5 X 5 Challenge Plus, My New Best Friends.

﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿

Stuff I've made in the last week (that didn't earn their own post)
embroidered "W", embroidery needle pincushion, and a scale model of a
handcart (from a kit).
New Best Friends? My Dollar Tree reading glasses and my needle threader.

﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿ Lately I've been celebrating the completion of TUJD (The Uncrushable Jersey Dress). Reading and reviewing one book a week for sixteen months was satisfying in one way - Keira and I did exactly what we set out to do in our 'mission statement' - which did give me a sense of accomplishment - but there were unfortunate side effects, most notably, the lack of time/energy for more creative pursuits.

I've been making up for lost time (creatively speaking), and really enjoying myself. So here's the challenge. Next week, Monday-Friday I plan on making OR organizing at least one thing each day and blogging about it. I've roped in a few of you - the only real rule is that I want to see a picture (before and after if you can, but at least after).

Who's in? Leave a comment on this blog, so we'll know which blogs to watch next week.
